The research will focus on the fundamentals of non-equilibrium plasmas and their interaction with the surrounding media such as solids or liquids using spectroscopic techniques.
Atmospheric pressure plasmas (APPJs) are widely used for research purposes or industrial applications. There are plenty of different APPJs designed with various geometries and excitation frequencies ranging from kHz over RF (MHz) to fast ns...
Atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs), such as the micro cavity plasma array (MCPA), have emerged as promising technologies for the conversion of volatile gases. These conversion processes’ effectiveness can be enhanced by...
Atmospheric pressure plasmas are widely used for nitrogen fixation processes to produce ammonia NH3 or nitrogen oxides NOx , including for example nitrite NO2– or nitrate NO3–. Small scale atmospheric pressure plasma jets (APPJs) can provide the...
In this work, the transport of hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide from a humid atmospheric pressure plasma jet into plasma-treated liquids is analysed. The concentration of H2O2 was measured by a spectrophotometric approach using the reagent...
Micro cavity plasma arrays have numerous applications, such as the treatment of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or the generation of new species. In recent years, the focus has also shifted to plasma catalysis, in which catalytic surfaces are...
A humid atmospheric pressure plasma jet was used to treat an aqueous liquid. The transport of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl from the plasma to the liquid was analyzed. Two in-situ liquid diagnostics for each species were compared and validated....
A new actinometry approach, state enhanced actinometry (SEA), is presented. This diagnostic uses the emission of the atomic states O(3p3P (λ=844.6 nm), Ar(2p1) (λ=750.4 nm) and He(33S) (λ=706.5 nm) and allows the atomic oxygen density and the...
Two-dimensional spatially resolved absolute atomic oxygen densities are measured within an atmospheric pressure micro plasma jet and in its effluent. The plasma is operated in helium with an admixture of 0.5% of oxygen at 13.56 MHz and with a...
Here we present a method for the operando determination of absolute absorbed power in an RF atmospheric pressure helium plasma discharge using miniaturized probes. A detailed error analysis demonstrates the reliability of the measured power...
